STOLE A WATCH.
A Mothers Letter Betrays Her
Son.

A uUother,s letser Betrays Her
About two months ago Mrs. Julia
Smith, who resides on Georgia street,
purchased gold watch of Nordlinger.
paying therefor S35. and chain for
which she gave S32. Mrs. Smith, having
rooms to spare, rented one to w. A.
Davis, who was rooming at the house at
the time she purchased the watch. One
morning shortly after the purchase Mrs.
Smith came down town to engage in her
daily toll of preparing Bryson Block for
occupation, but she left the watch and
chain under her pillow. As she went
home she saw tramp in the neighbor
hood but did not pay any particular
attention to him, but she afterward
suspected him of the theft of her watch
which she discovered had been taken
when she arrived at her home.
As soon as she discovered her loss she
called to Davis, who was in the house ut
the time, and together they waited on
Constable Ej. Smith, who undertook to
find the thief. Constable Smith imme-
diately suspected Davis of the theft, but
as time went on nothing occurred o
point to HIM as the guilty party. Final
ly Davis moved and went to Santa Mon.
ica, but when he departed he left in his
room letter from lis mother, who re-
sides at Hot Springs, Arkansas. Mrs.
Smith picked this up, and reading it she
came to the conclusion that it threw
light on the loss of her watch. Mrs.
Davis told her son in the letter that she
had received the watch which he had
sent her, and was wearing it. In return
she said she had taken his watch
"out of SOAK" and would send it 10
him. Constable Smith Immediately
wrote to Chief Of Police Hart, of Hot
Springs, and requested him to obtain
the number and description of the watch
received and worn by Mrs. Davis, to see
il it corresponded with the description
of the stolen watch purchased at Nord-
linger. Yesterday Constable Smith
heard from Chief Hart, who stated that
the watch Tailed with the description,
aud was in his hands. He was asked,
by telegraph, to send it here, and Con.
stable Smith went to Santa Monica yes.
terday afternoon and arrested W. A.
Davis, who was lodged in the County
Jail last night, and will have to answer
to a charge of burglary. He wore the
watch sent him by his mother, and was
inclined to deny the accusation, until
confronted with his mothers letter,
when he weakened.

of the Eastern States press associations
have been formed, and annual excur.

double purpose-to enable editorial

GIVING AWAY.
The Foundations of the New
CITY Hall settling.

The City Hail building has settled
four inches at the corner in which is To-
Gated the office of the Chief of Police.
In consequence of this settling the brick
wall in front has cracked, aud there are
several large cracks inside. The least
shock of earthquake is considered likely
to bring down the entire wall fronting on
the hole on the corner of Spring and
Second streets, recently purchased by
John Bryson for Sl20, 900 from the city.
The immense weight Of the bricks in
that wall has broken some OF the bricks
in the front wall in the middle, showing
the force which is being brought to bear
to tear asunder the building The only
support which the wall now has is a tin
stovepipe, reaching from the bottom Of
the hole about halfway mp the first
story. The corner stones of granite,
which were formerly even with the side.
walk, are now four inches below, and
there is evidence of weakness about that
part of the building which gives its oc-
cupants some uneasiness. Those who
are unfortunate enough to be in the
building when the wall gives away will
without doubt lose their lives.

They Need Care and Culture.


The raising of trees and small fruit,
says the Leola Northwest, is subject
the people of Dakota should begin to
consider. A great many seem to take it
for granted that trees cannot be grown
but have they tried it-that is, have they
given the trees fair show? The mere
sticking of cuttings into the ground, or
planting of seed, and leaving them after
ward to the mercy of the mice and rab.
bits and weeds, is not trial. You don't
raise anything else in that way. All
these things need care and culture until
they have attained hardihood sufficient
to support themselves. Small fruit may
require constant care but if few vari-
eties can be grown moderately we'll, and
no doubt they can, will they not pay their
way in the qualification of wholesome
appetite, il not in dollars and cents?
How much time would it require for ev-
cry farmer to raise bed of Strawberries
that would afford his family all they
would need for the year, fresh and canned,
or otherwise preserved? Then there are
raspberries. currants, gooseberrics, and a
host of Others which represent a good
meal and good health. Try some trees
and small fruits.

Press 1t leaked out to-day that couple
of Milwaukee gentlemen, who have been
in the city for the past ten days picking
up cheap lots in the east end of the city,
are working in the interest of the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad,
and that the scheme is to get 1.-TWO half,
blocks centrally located for depot pur-
poses. To-day two officials of the Mil
waukee road arrived. They did not reg
lister, but were closeted with Banker Ray
mond, H. F. Douglas, and others. 1t is
learned that it is ths intention of the
Milwaukee road to build to Bismarck this
year, aud arrangements.for the extension
are now being made

"a PRESBYTERIAN missionary recently
lectured in St. Paul. He said in one part
of his lecture: Among the people of
Central America travellers are safer to-day
than they are in Minnesota, and fewer
robberies are committed than in any por-
ton of the United States" And in an
other place remarked: 1.-The attempts to
Christianize these people have not been
successful, and they are not better now
than they were three centuries ago."
This United States missionary could un-
doubtedly find more profitable field in
his own country. The Central Americans
seem to be doing very well. If what the
reverend gentleman says of them be true,
they should be solicited to send mission
aries to Minnesota.

Phenomenal Hailstorm.

Pioneer Press special telegram, Mason
City, Iowa, April IA: About 2:3O p. m.
to-day the sun became obscure, and q
light rain, accompanied by thunder and
lightning, set in. Suddenly, after deaf.
enlng thunder clap, the sun burst through
the clouds, and, while shining as brightly
as before the storm, hail began to fall,
continuing for quarter of an hour,
striking the ground with the force of bull
lets. The hailstoncs were the size of
sparrow eggs, broke windows and stam-
.peded teams upon the streets, and fell in
such quantities that they had to be re-
moved with shovels. So phenomenal or
severe hailstorm in this section old resi-
dents do not remember. During the
storm the barn of William Judd, south
east of town, was struck by lightning
and burned with its contents.

A RING OF RAScALS.
BlaekmaiIinR settlers.


Washington special telegram april 17) |
to Pioneer Press J. N. Boggs, we'll
known attorney of Duluth, who has fire.
quently represented the government in
the prosecution of land frauds in that |
section, has been in this city for three or
four days past laying before Commits
sioner Sparks some facts IN connection
with the workings of his land policy that
will probably have some effect in produc
ing q more conservative course in the fu-
ture. So closely has the commissioner
followed the technical construction of
the land laws that almost every claimant
who came to prove up on his entry was
viewed with suspicion. and vide oppor-
tunitics were given special agents and
contestants who could by any means
show flaw in the claimants compliance
with the law. The result has been, Mr..
Boggs says, to encourage all through the
Northwest the entering of contests in the
land Offices against bona. fide entrymen
on the slightest pretext. aud rings of land
attorneys have been formed to make sys-
tematic contestsfor the purpo Sc of black
mailing the entrymen or finally securing
the land through false affidavits. 1t is
said that the special agents of the general
land office, anxious to make record, ac-
ccpt without question or investigation
the aid of these rings, and forward their
statements to Washington as bona-fide
Investigations, and aid them before the
| local land offices in making their cases.
Several agents have even been charged
with having pecuniary interest in the
success of these contests, where mineral
lands are at stake, and help in every way
possible to dispossess the original claim
ants. The scheme as at present carried
out Is for the land attorney to have
printed form of affidavit Aat certain
designated entry was secured by fraud,
that the entryman has not complied with
the law, and that the deponent desires to
enter contest. Some ignorant party is
| told that he can secure Il fins piece of land
| by simply entering contest and paying
light fees, and "on information and be.
lief" without having ever seen the land,
he signs the above affidavit, which very
frequently states that the deponent knows
the facts of his own knowledge. This is
the last he hears of it. The contest is
carried up by the attorney and his part.
ners, the latter furnishing more atf1davits
ION information ard belief" and the
case is pushed through the local land
Office to the commissioner. So tlagrant
has this method of contestlng become
that the reputable attorneys have deter
mined to bring a number of cases before
the grand jury, and are securing evidence
upon which to base indictments for per-
jury against large number of members
of these rings. These schemes have been
so extensively worked throughout Dakota
and the Northwest as to even excite the
suspicion of the general land-o office
authorities here.
